    some stores still specify the end of the month.. so yeah I'd rather get it sooner than later. I'll admit it was only a couple of weeks ago I briefly had similar thoughts of doing the same thing.. Its not that I don't like it, I really do! its just that for a moment I thought to myself do I really need another color version of the same thing? CDJ would have refunded me easy enough had I wanted to cancel but seeing its paid for and it didn't put me out doing so AND then just looking at the photos of it again makes me sure I still want it! It does really look pretty good if not better than the others or at least equal to Ozma. Biggest issue is finding room to display it. Looks like that extra display cabinet has finally gotta happen!

    Seeing some stores are requesting payment already i presume the release date is the 18th?

    I'd take the VF-19 pic in a heartbeat! Dude they are more than good enough to be displayed in the Macross museum! Great stuff!

    @NOD.. yeah but you still have a very nice collection of stuffs there! And if you did get all that cabling sorted out it would look even better!

    Wow!! Those look fantastic! Are you thinking of selling any? I'm sure many folks in here would be interested!

    Originally had 3 reserved, including one for a fellow forum member who has since cancelled so its back to 2.. both paid in full. Looking forward to the Percival!

    Excellent comparo photos abdner!

    well that's one way to get the boosters to fit on and stay on.. mold them as one with the Valk! hehe!

    im taking my son to see this in a few days.. intentionally on half price Tuesday of course.. not holding my breath that its going to be any good.. The last few were just horrible. Just as the Aliens movies, the first two were great but the rest just sucked balls.. there should be a law against making money grab movies. Don't get me started on the Marvel movies.. shocking.

    that looks friggin crazy good! I wonder what something this scale would actually cost!?

    these are some mighty fine bits of Minmay art!!

    gimmicky bending function aside I don't mind the gunpod! Has anyone fitted the Arcadia's gunpod to the Bandai yet? I reckon it would look a little out of scale..

    The effect worked great! The grey is a nicer color than what the supers come with! And yes you definitely need to fit the either the kite or skull squadron logo's on the boosters.. Either would work but I think the kite logo would be better..

    Great! Its a deal!

    ahh yes I did just check it out on the Shapeways website! Definitely worth it but I think I'll wait till the drone is out of the way.. or not..

    Holy crap!!! that looks friggin amazing! Its things like this where it would be cool if the Matrix did exist and you could just plug in and download the necessary skill to do make models like this!

    This looks cool but that front landing gear angle just bugs the crap outta me! didn't bother correcting the reflection but you still get the idea! At least you get to see the difference..

    Great shots $60! Are the colors of the those super parts a little image trickery / magic? They look great nonetheless! They do eh!

    I've done my dash with AmiAmi and won't be ordering anything from them period. They are just rude and their customer service and certain policies are yet to be desired. Nippon Yasan has been really good to me and the one time I have had to cancel an order with them they were totally fine about it. "not a problem at all, happy we could help" if I remember correctly was their response.. But then again I have spent a 5#!t load of money with them which probably helps.. Bought a decent amount of stuff through HLJ too but never been in a situation that I needed to call upon their customer service but I have had more pre-order cancellations by them themselves not to mention more cart jacking incidents than any other seller. And the store who has always been the most straight forward and no nonsense especially when it comes to shipping goods upon release was CD Japan. Again I have never called upon their customer service (that I can remember) so I cannot comment on that. Yes there are certain parts that can be skipped but the boosters themselves do look very good fitted! If they fit on ok which is the catch.. The leg covers and shoulder parts can definitely stay in the box! The whole thing looks a lot neater with only the boosters attached in my opinion. The other parts are just unnecessary and tacky looking garnish.

    true.. but there would still be painting involved.. im not going out of my way to make excuses or anything.. im just lazy! It would be good to repaint the M&M VF-22 pair to colors closer to their VF-1 versions but that would be a big job. If they ever did renew those two 22's and paint them a better color then I would probably buy em!
  25. spanner
    Those colors look better than all the ones they actually released! Especially the top two! The idea of the new parts does sound good but i dont think I'd have the will to start pulling apart the four 21/22 valks i have plus painting everything up to match..
